A middle-aged man’s unsentimental voice could be heard on the other end of the phone, “Someone from the company will go to you to sign off on the mortgage agreement, Mr. Atticus.”
Fabian said angrily, “Are you afraid that I’ll renege on a debt?”
The middle aged man was still indifferent. He replied robotically, “Everyone will be treated the same. This is the company’s rules.”
“Hehe… Okay… We’ll increase the transaction value then. I’ll mortgage all the houses, cars, stocks, and funds under my name in Harbor City. How much can I get?“
“500 million US Dollars.” The middle aged man on the other end of the phone answered meticulously.
“What about 100% of Empire Meet’s stock right?” Fabian asked coldly.
This time, there was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone.
“Mr. Atticus, please wait a moment. We have not evaluated this asset for the time being. I will ask for further instructions immediately.”
“I’ll wait for you,” Fabian said with a cold smile.
The man did not hang up the phone. Three minutes later, there was the sound of the phone being picked up.
Then, Fabian heard the voice of the middle-aged man.
“This item can be valued at another 500 million US Dollars.”
“This is daylight robbery! The Empire Meet is only worth 500 million? Ask those people above you how strong the connections and resources of the Empire Meet are. Without me, how else will you find another Empire Meet?”
On the other end of the phone, the middle aged man replied without any emotion, “The value of Empire Meet will shrink significantly when you’re not in it, so that’s why it’s only worth 500 million US Dollars. Not to mention, it’s just a mortgage. As long as you pay back the principal amount and interest on time, everything will still belong to you, Mr. Atticus.”
Fabian’s face was dark and he gritted his teeth as he considered the offer for a moment.
“Deal! Send your people over right away! Once the contract is signed, I want to see the money immediately!”
“Mr. Atticus, rest assured that as long as the contract is signed and we hear back from the people we send over, I will arrange the payment immediately.”
Half an hour later, three men came to the door of the secret villa where Fabian was residing.
The three men were wearing black suits, and one of them was carrying a box that was password protected. The box would only open after three people entered their passwords. Therefore, the security of this box could be described as extremely rigorous.
After the box was opened, Fabian reviewed the documents and then signed it.
After they retrieved the documents, the three men immediately left the villa.
They never said a word to each other from beginning to the end.
As soon as the three of them left, Fabian received a transfer of 1 billion US Dollars.
After that, Fabian transferred the money directly into the securities account without saying another word.
“Get him. If Jasper wants to beat me, he has to be prepared to lose a piece of his flesh in the process,” Fabian said coldly.
Meanwhile, the team of stock traders under him did not dare to ask about the source of the money. They immediately acted out Fabian’s instructions.
Hence, the United States Dow Jones Index market began surging again.
The purchase order of 1 billion US Dollars was very conspicuous in this market where everything was declining. Moreover, it had a great rallying effect.
Many copycats, who had still been hesitating, saw this huge purchasing order and immediately gritted their teeth and chose to put in a portion of their funds to keep up with the trend.
Some brave entities followed suit as a show of force.
In short, the 1 billion spurred more money from the bottom fishers, causing the transaction data to surge in the blink of an eye. Ultimately, the entire Dow Jones index unexpectedly moved up by 3 points.
Even though these 3 points meant nothing in the scale of the overall stock market. However, it was a godsend for this particular market. Because this was the only index increase in the past few days since the incident occurred.
Even if it was only 3 points, it still evoked the greed of countless people.
